...convinced the Block isn't that much of an entertainment value for the city," he says. "I really think it has become an obsolete, tawdry thing of the past." Reich is planning to eliminate the Block within 10 years, replacing it with a multimillion-dollar inner-harbor redevelopment project, including a community college, a shopping mall, and municipal and commercial office buildings. Meanwhile, one whole block of seamy establishments has already been razed to make way for, of all things, a new $11 million police headquarters...

"But a man's anatomy doesn't become his destiny," Gagnon says. "Man is primarily a social being...
...their dubious laurels, perhaps forever, at least until it becomes obvious that rent control has not helped the housing situation. By then it will be too late. Most of Cambridge's residents will have rested in their rent-controlled apartments, while, at a minimum, the 1200 to 1500 Inner Belt families have been forced to leave Cambridge for lack of low-income housing...
